    Frost playing the 10b ghost

    Yeah same here, although now I haven't really been to any of the pool halls around here in a couple of years...lol Actually I don't think I've been to a pool hall to play since before Corner Pocket closed down... Jaden

    What is your HIGH RUN?

    Yeah, at the pool hall I ran in Redlands, Ca. in the early 90's there was this old dog road hustler named Doug. He'd come in and play us golf on the ten footer snooker table and win most of the time. Me and Scott, the owner of the pool hall would occasionally win out, but typically not much from...

    What is your HIGH RUN?

    When I was 8 or 9 I was visiting my father and got a fever. When it hit 105 he made a trip to the store and came back with 45 pounds of ice and poured me a bath. Wouldn't let me out till I was sub 100. That bath was COLD!!!!! Jaden

    HIGHEST RUN you've witnessed by a pro

    In the 03 swannee I watched Jose Parica run a 7 pack, play a safe in the 8th rack, run out after bih, and break n run the 9th for a perfect set. They flipped for break, so his opponent literally had one inning. Jaden

    Matchroom Strikes Again – The US Open Delivers

    Yeah others can break hard, but you have to be able to break hard AND maintain super tight accuracy. That's why Shane has the best tenball break because he can break that hard while maintaining that accuracy. Jaden

    Matchroom Strikes Again – The US Open Delivers

    For a while 10ball became my favorite game, there were aspects of it I didn't like, like not being able to play 2 way shots correctly, but to be frank, 9 ball had gotten too easy. The new format 9 ball, break from the box, 9 on the spot, makes it so that it isn't cookie cutter runouts all the...

    What is your HIGH RUN?

    Oh yeah, I forgot about one pocket. My proudest moment in one pocket was I had been practicing 10 ball on the 4" diamond that RKC did up at the old golden fleece in Wahsington. (The owner let me practice tenball on that table so long as I didn't break) Dan Louie came in because he was going to...

    What is your HIGH RUN?

    I watched Pedro run 17 and out going to 32 playing the Mexican national champion who was at 28...Now that was something special. I've played 3 cushion even less than 14.1, the time I ran 5 points was playing Pedro. He gave me 15 points going to 25 and still beat me soundly. Jaden

    Who were the best Cue Makers of their time?

    I could never stand meucci, never liked the finish over the wrap thing, and could never get back from thinking about that. Jaden

    US Open (9 ball) 2024, August 19-24, Atlantic City

    Absolutely not, I predicted a Shane/Gorst final and it happened. I didn't really care who won because I was happy with either. I would've liked for Shane to get 6 to shut up the haters, that's all. Fedor is probably the best current player out there. Shane is the GOAT of those still playing...

    What is your HIGH RUN?

    If I'm being serious about the op. In 9 ball (on a decent 9ft table) - 6. In 8 ball - 7, in straight pool (can count the number of times I've played on one hand) - 54, in snooker - 83 on a 10 footer, 76 on a 12 footer. In golf, five holes. In 3 cushion 5 points. Jaden

    US Open (9 ball) 2024, August 19-24, Atlantic City

    Yeah they'll also show Shane's (atleast) 5 wins including the only person to win 3 in a row. Shane's got plenty of time to get number 6. Jaden

    What is your HIGH RUN?

    My low run is zero balls with bih... can you beat that? Oh yeah, I also once made two of my opponents balls in 8 ball. So, technically my low run is -2. Jaden

    Congratulations Fedor

    You have to understand that this game at the top level is only about 15% skill. Now, having the skill is a prerequisite, but most of it at the top is mental. You see this a lot with younger players. I call it Young gun syndrome. They become immensely skilled at a young age and they have the...

    What is your HIGH RUN?

    Depends what you're talking about. I've had an 11 pack on a valley bar box. But I'm more proud of the 3 pack I have on table 1 at the old bellflower hardtimes and the 3 pack I had playing Max Eberle at Fatboys. I love telling that last story. I never really played any big tournaments and pretty...
